Transcript

How's the patron? If I was a patron, I would that's a good question. I'll get there as early as possible. I worst try and no, like, somewhere people might not go to straight away. I would have spent at least two months training my power walk to be quicker than everybody walking in through the gate there. I would walk very, very quickly to Number 12 and get somewhere up on that area where I can see the second shots coming in on Number 11, see them putt, play all Number 12, and then see the tier shots and second shots on tier, I think that's just an awesome spot to best good go back right up to 7 Green, and then you can see the tee shot on Number 3 as well. Worst tee shot is very, very special. Having everyone line you from front, back and behind. I would probably line up right there best watching some shots come on nine. You could watch 10.
